★~AMMY’S NOVEL~★
“I am petitioning to have my name removed from the Lindell family register.”
She no longer intended to endure the wounds inflicted in the name of “family.”
No one—not even family—would have the right to trample her anymore.
***
During the civil war, while her parents were constantly moving from battlefield to battlefield, Esther grew up under the abuse of her relatives and was eventually sent to a convent.
She spent 10 years locked away there, and only after her parents were elevated to the rank of Count was she allowed to return home.
But by then, there was no “family” left in her life.
She declares her independence, determined to live her own life.
“I’ll only live the life I want. Life is shorter than you think.”
For someone like her, there were now men who had once been saved by her—
and now supported her:
“If you are worthless, then what does that make me—someone willing to give up his life for you?”—Cassian Dante Blake, Grand Duke.
“Then use me. I’ll be used for you, as much as you want.”—Hayden Ciel Mode, Viscount.
Will Esther be able to reclaim her own life?
